Part 8
(I have an idea how to end this one thanks to SCP foundation)
Kitty is wearing a vintage dress and as much is a pretty dress, and the social media are saying that Kitty is finally cured of her clown syndrome illness, the young woman can´t help by the forlon expression as she´s having second thoughts about being here.
“Kitty?” Meggan appears wearing a mom´s sweater as she lovely like to call and it has the photo of her daughter, in her words, she likes to show off her cute daughter and Maggie can only sigh in embarrassment as her mother is ready to go extra miles to show how she loves her and her family. For once, her pretty face has no real smile there.
England is in a turmoil with Krakoa, well, not Krakoa itself, but rather with Prof X and Magneto. Prof X used his powers to manipulate people in England in the past, maybe his wealth was not just a family inherence as he wants everyone to believe, and now the government wants justice for those crimes. England is always on the fence in regards mutants. They´d not hate. They´d not care fully to form an opinion and honestly, to Kitty that´s even dangerous than have an opinion.
“You´re here! Do you want to go back to the hotel?” Meggan speaks and Kitty shakes her head. Just tired of everything.
“I´m tired of pretending to not be angry that those people have the luxury to not care about mutants. Is very tiresome” Kitty confessed and Meggan nods sagely, but, her sharp eyes lock on Kitty.
“I think you´re making a mistake here. Yes, support mutants is a noble goal, but, the problem is...you´re equating mutants with minorities. You´re Jewish and you want protection and safety to all groups, but, is hard to say mutants are like Jewish when Prof X is wiping people´s memories” Meggan states and she was sure Kitty would defend her ex-professor. She was wrong.
“True, I get it, but...the sentinels” she begins as if she wants to win a very serious debate and Meggan only offers a sad smile.
“Kitty, there´s no more sentinels after mutants...but there are people after minorities...where are the X-men to help when the world leaders start saying some humans deserved less?” and this is a question that really takes Kitty´s full prepared answers away.
“Me and my crew are doing something...”
“Yes, you and your crew and is a good thing, but, Kitty, not every minority can phase through the wall, so, in the end, all Prof X is doing is a segregation” and once again, Kitty can´t deny that.
The blonde woman notices her silence and goes sit next to Kitty. They´re in a bar in the desolated part of the bar and Meggan makes one simple question. “Do you really like him?”
“We don´t need to talk about that, Meggan, I know how you feel about this” Kitty states and Meggan shakes her head confusing Kitty again.
“He was the instrument of my rape, yes, I use this word here because is what it happened. I know he´s not the instigator. I also can´t help to hate him. I´d like you, Kitty Pryde and I still believe in love and I want you to be happy...if you and he are to be together...I´ll not want this friendship to end”
Such mature words make Kitty feels little again. She recalls a time, in her youth, where Kitty would have all the answers and make the big shots decisions and she remembers the feeling she used to have when talking about the X-men and her life. Now, she can see clearly how she was really mistaken.
“Look, I have no idea what I felt for him”
“But you feel something?”
“Yeah, something”
